Life, circumstances, attacks, etc love to distract you from what you are supposed to be doing. We know that and almost expect those things to happen. But what about the things of God – your ministry, your title/position, your purpose? What happens when those things take your attention and focus away? Today, the Lord wanted me to remind you of why you first said yes. Not your call “yes” or your elevation “yes” but your salvation yes, your repentance yes, your confession yes. You see, if you are tired, frustrated or waiting on an answer, take a moment and reflect on why you said yes in the first place. It wasn’t for the spotlight or the likes on Instagram. It was your very life and it is worth a revisit.
The people that you are looking to follow your ministry and attend your event, will find you at your yes. They will see the passion and the excitement that flowed so freely from you when you first felt God in your heart. It’s time to go back and find your yes. Stop waiting on the Lord to say something deep and begin to worship Him for how He plucked you out of sin’s grasp and set you on a new path!
The Lord reminded me of what was said in 1 Corinthians 1:20 this morning, “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.”(II Corinthians 1:20 NKJV)
If yes was such a powerful word that all of His promises are answered in it, why have we become so lackadaisical about our yes? How have we moved so far away from it? It’s time to get back to what you said to God in the first place, I promise that your why and your next will become clear!
Amen
